We are fully focused on equality and believe deeply in diversity of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, national origin and all the other characteristics that make us different. We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates from Black and other underrepresented minority ethnic backgrounds.
ELAM is a world-class 16-19 Academy which opened in September 2014. ELAM offers young people everything that they will need to lead successful lives within the music, games design and film and television sectors – the Recognition, the Access and the Relevant skills to become, what we call, ‘Industry Ready’.
We are seeking a talented candidate to support in the delivery of our curriculum. Although teaching is involved in this role, this is not a traditional teaching post.
- The planning of any lessons that you teach will be covered centrally. Although this may mean that you will need to familiarise yourself with the resources and scheme of work, you are not required to plan or build lesson resources.
- The hours are fixed at 37.5 hours per week. This means any duties that the team might be undertaking outside of these hours are not applicable to you. For example, any marking that we allocate to you will be completed within the hours stated above.
- The role gives you a chance to teach across the ELAM curriculum, working alongside our expert teachers will bring opportunities for pedagogical and subject knowledge development.
The posts are subject to receipt of a satisfactory enhanced DBS check.

ELAM is a world-class 16-19 Academy which opened in September 2014. ELAM offers young people everything that they will need to lead successful lives within the music, games design and film and television sectors. We are based in Bromley-by-Bow, have Trainees from every borough in London and we are diverse in every way.
Our vision is that all children in the uk should see themselves reflected in uk culture. To do this we see our role as recruiting talented young creatives who, once they succeed, would diversify and ensure the creative industries are more representative.
We believe this can be achieved by increasing the access routes into those industries for talented young people. However, unlike many other industries, it is not always clear how to get into these jobs and therefore there is often a lack of diversity within these sectors. Increasing the access routes to everyone will therefore increase the quality of talent and the continued growth of the sector long term.

Matt Sheldon
We don't do this alone
We have partnered with sector-leading organisations including YouTube, Universal Music, The BPI, Grain Media and Creative Assembly to devise a curriculum that will develop the future leaders of these sectors by meeting the relevant knowledge, skills and cultural demands. The involvement of these organisations sends a powerful message to young people that these careers are for them, they belong, that they can (and will) succeed.
Who is involved?
ELAM has been founded by a group of leading figures from industry and education. Will Kennard, Musician and one half of production duo Chase & Status, is a founder and governor. Alongside Will, the Governing body has senior executives from across the creative industries and education. We have support from a wide-range of partners from the music, film and games industries.
We work hard, we achieve high and we produce amazing creative products.
Our YouTube shows the range of talent that our Trainees have and develop - see ELAM’s vision in action here (our YouTube) and here (our most recent end of year showcasing website).
In addition, all trainees at ELAM undertake a study of Maths and English as we know written and spoken communication, problem solving, data analysis and research are the key traits of the leaders in these fields.
